The balance is a DCE device. Connect the balance to a personal computer (DTE), using a straight
through cable.
Transmission system : EIA RS-232C
Transmission form : Asynchronous, bi-directional, half duplex
Transmission rate : 10 times/second or 5 times/second (same as data refresh rate)
Data format : Baud rate : 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200bps
Data bits : 7 or 8 bits
Parity : Even, Odd (Data bits 7 bits)
None (Data bits 8 bits)
Stop bit : 1 bit
(When sending, 2 bits; receiving, 1 bit.
A personal computer will function with either
setting.)
